But also because I was thinking I needed to NOT run the car much without a tune, after the hfc install.

Someone (?) told me I would need to change injectors if I went with the manifold swap... didn't research it for myself - but will definitely look into that - now that you mentioned it :-)

I do all my own labor - but I'm not very savvy with all the tech stuff - tuning & all that - never had it old school lol
Well I will give you a few tips, I currently have the Ark Grip, and while it does sound good, I will soon be selling it to get my F.I. exhaust. I do installs on the side for extra cash, and after installing a bunch of different exhausts, I can tell you the build quality and fitment on the F.I. is unbelievably good.

You absolutely do not need to change injectors on this car unless you want to go E85 or Forced Induction, however the Z1 intake manifold is the only bolt on that requires you to tune afterwards.

Dont try to tune it yourself, take it to a reputable shop that is UpRev certified.

Good words!

Daniel at F.I. told me there is a Nissan dealer somewhere in Fla that buys their systems in bulk (which adds to the wait time of individuals wanting to buy them) and then re-sells them with mark-up so you don't have to wait - but I've been unsuccessful in locating them.

Is there an UPREV cert shop in Orlando? I think there are 2 in Tampa - and I'm pretty sure NONE in Ocala or G'ville... maybe someone doing a group tune?

So - you are in line for an F.I. catback now? If so, how long til you get yours, and how much for your Ark? lol I suppose I should reconsider the catback thoughts. hmmm :-)

For uprev I went to PRS in sanford, they did a decent tune for an OK price, but theyre not uprev certified so ill get it done again at some point to have multiple maps, probably at Zspeed in Tampa.

Ill think over how much Im going to sell the ARK for and ill PM you when I decide.
